SENECA FALLS, N.Y. -- As three kidnappers held a man hostage inside their Seneca Falls home, they used a child to collect ransom money, records show.

Jesse J. Dillsworth, Bryan A. Gonyou Sr. and Lisa J. Freer were indicted Thursday by a Seneca County grand jury and charged with holding a man hostage. Seneca County District Attorney Barry Porsch announced the indictment on Friday.

The four-page indictment revealed new details about the kidnapping.

Gonyou drove the victim, a 27-year-old Seneca Falls man, to Gonyou's 25 Miller St. home on April 30, according to the indictment. A 15 year old was also riding inside the vehicle, the indictment said.

While they were inside the vehicle, Gonyou threatened to kill the man if he did not give him marijuana or money, the indictment said. He then forced the man into the Miller Street home, the indictment said.

Gonyou shared the residence with his co-defendants, the Seneca Falls Police Department said.

Inside the home, Gonyou and Dillsworth hit and threatened to kill the victim, the indictment said. Freer asked the man to get money for Gonyou, the indictment said. At some point, Dillsworth brandished a knife, the indictment said.

At the victim's request, an unnamed person gave ransom money to the teen on April 30, the indictment said. A person brought a second batch of ransom money to the teen on May 1, the indictment said.

That day, the man was released. He reached out for help, police said.

The trio were arrested Monday after a week-long investigation. Three days later, they were indicted.

Here are the charges filed against the defendants:

Gonyou Sr., 39, was charged with two counts of first-degree kidnapping, first-degree conspiracy and second-degree grand larceny, all felonies. He was also charged with endangering the welfare of a child, a misdemeanor, and second-degree harassment, a violation.

Dillsworth, 34, was charged with two counts of first-degree kidnapping, first-degree conspiracy, second-degree grand larceny and endangering the welfare of a child. He was also charged with two counts of second-degree menacing, a misdemeanor, and second-degree harassment.

Freer, 37, was charged with two counts of first-degree kidnapping, first-degree conspiracy, second-degree grand larceny and endangering the welfare of a child.

All three defendants remain in the Seneca County Correctional Facility's custody.
